New York Edge was one of the afterschool programs at P.S.163 where my son got into Summer Rising 2023. If not for my work schedule and Summer Rising being free, I would have never sent my son to summer school everyday.

Trying to pick up my son was a disaster. They couldn't find which classroom my son was in and many parents besides me were left waiting in the lobby for hours. I understand that their staff didn't know what my son looked like at first but making little to no effort to find him for hours while I was waiting? Ridiculous.

My son would come home everyday and tell me that he was so bored. All the kids did was play on their IPADs that they brought in for the morning classes with actual teachers or watch movies.

I was extremely disappointed to learn that New York Edge was a non-profit because some non-profits actually do great work but I would not donate anything to New York Edge or trust them with my son again with how disorganized and terrible their Summer Rising program was.
